Oscar style

Recently I was in an airport and picked up the latest People magazine to check out this year's Oscar fashion.  I missed the actual ceremony because I forgot it was so early in the day!  Anyway, I finally got a good look at the dresses from this year and there were some stunners!  However, my favorite was Mila Kunis in an amazing dusky lavender Elie Saab confection.  The color of the dress was perfect for her skin color.

I am officially in love with this dress - and actually the entire 2011 spring/summer collection.  I love the defined waists with grosgrain ribbon.  I love the use of lace and transparent tulle panels around the neck and shoulders of many of the dresses.  I love the delicate femininity of the pieces.

I also fell in love with the above dress from Elie Saab spring/summer 2011.  I would love to wear it somewhere special, although perhaps in the lavender color (if I'm going to dream, may as well go big).
